@Caleb Brown

Hey Caleb, I appreciate the advice. I’m certainly not giving anyone 40k anytime soon unless it’s for a real asset 💪🏼. I have two local meetings coming up that I am excited to attend.

Thanks for sharing.

@Scott Jensen

Hey Scott!

Thanks for tapping in.

Yeah, I’ve been studying finance my whole life. I believe with my 500k, used semi correctly will keep me above average of my peers for my lifetime to come. I would much rather put my money in places and learn and gain experience even if I take some losses, because knowledge is everything in the world along with ambition and desire. I wouldn’t ever want to pay someone to manage my money. Only to track how big it’s getting 😎

@Mitch Pascarella

You got this, just do it! At such low cost for some good cash flow do it! Just make sure you save and budget properly. This is an investment not a job. Only relying on it for income/cash will result in increased risk. You might be making 60k a year at your job. I’m sure you will be fine if stuff doesn’t go perfect!

@Taylor L.

Thanks, understanding LTC is definitely an important piece of information that I believe I am still understanding. The math is one thing, it in practice is another.

Good day.

@Brent Paul

Hey Brent, I don’t mind bombardment. I am very socially aware and not easily fooled. I actually find enjoyment in people trying. I’m not sure of why you say not 100% in real estate. I do if you mean leaving no capital. But I believe 80% into real estate is certainly safer than 80% into stocks. Maybe not 80% with a financial plane though, that could work wonders.

@Lynnette E.

Thanks for your info!

I personally haven’t heard of annuities and will research what they are now. I like your plan! More safe than mine anyhow.

Haven’t heard of step cds either, but will find out now!

Good day.

@Nick Rutkowski

Thank you for all your information brother!

I think I am going to invest 400k in with a professional manager and a diversified portfolio, and use the income and dividends to make my own real estate investments and keep a 100k cash reserve for fixing!

How does that sound?
